Jeremiah 22:28-30
1599 Geneva Bible
28 Is not this man Coniah as a despised and broken idol? or as a vessel, wherein is no pleasure? wherefore are they carried away, he and his seed, and cast out into a land that they know not?
29 O [a]earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the Lord.
30 Thus saith the Lord, Write this [b]man destitute of children, a man that shall not prosper in his days: for there shall be no man of his seed that shall prosper and sit upon the throne of David, or bear rule anymore in Judah.
